The OEM tool kit actually is pretty dang good. I added a micro hex ratchet (works with screwdriver bits and has an adapter for 1/4" sockets), and a good real 1/4" ratchet (which is kindof reduntant, but I figured why not). I also added a screwdriver with hex bits (shares with the micro ratchet), a 19mm wrench, and then small things like a tire gauge, 6" socket extension, and a telescoping magnet. With those tools added to the stock kit, I've removed and modifed the carbs, taken off all the fairings, removed the rear wheel, replaced the exhaust system several times, and raised and lowered the rear suspension.

If I can't do basic roadside repairs with this, then it ain't something that can be repaired on the roadside :P .
